“So wonderful!”

The location is unreal. It is just beautiful from every angle— from the floor to ceiling windows, and balcony views from our room, to the view from the infinity pool.

The location is unreal. It is just beautiful from every angle— from the floor to ceiling windows, and balcony views from our room, to the view from the infinity pool. The staff gets an A+ for their engagement, friendly actions, and kindness. My husband enjoyed a 75-minute massage, and I enjoyed both a massage and a facial. Interestingly, we both reported a different review of our experiences, but all was lovely. A board is posted in the lobby where you can sign up for all kinds activities from yoga to guided hikes or e-bike rides, Pilates and more. Three saunas are located in the woods, and although we did not make use of them, we went to look, and they were fabulous. The sign for no bathing suits allowed for one of the saunas needs to be larger! The food is incredible. They serve a buffet style with hot made-to-order entrées for breakfast and lunch of a buffet, meats, salads, hot dish and desserts. Dinner is multicourse feast with so many options. The servers, particularly our server Anika, are so knowledgeable; we enjoyed several wine tastings with Anika’s guidance. Wines and beers are available at lunch, and a bartender provides beautiful mixed drinks in the early evening prior to the dinner time. This is a fabulous hotel experience, and we wished we had planned more time to stay!

There are some places that exceed the hype and this is one of them! A truly amazing experience in a tranquil pine forest retreat with outstanding heated pool and enhanced by the amazing food and hospitality. Things that surprise me in a very positive way: - the food was outstanding! Besides the gourmet style daily dinner the lunch was surprisingly also amazing. In some occasions I even enjoyed more the lunch to the dinner as the food was more authentic in a more laid down vibe. The grill lunch was one of those days! Just perfection! Klaus knows what he is doing (just a pity he cannot speak English! Maybe another member of the staff should join him). - Wine and cocktails. I must say all the complementary coktails were very impressive both in authenticity and flavour! The wine list is also high standards. - the pool. Not only it is beautiful and pristine clean but the water is at perfect warm temperature and the size big enough for proper swimming! Impressive! - tranquility of the grounds mainly in the sauna areas. - top notch quality of the complimentary electric bikes. - staff polite and pro active. I would like to highlight the professionalism of Lorenza, Alexandre and Christian. Now some negatives aspects that can be improved: - ants in the balcony decks; they should use ant repellent in those areas, including the rooftop lunch area and in the outdoor pool lounge areas. - I would add essential oil burners in the relax rooms; - gym needs urgently more diversity of machines and more heavy weights to be a proper gym as this place deserves. They could also have more gym classes. - sauna events should be everyday and more lively as in others Sudtirol resorts. Didn't appreciate the way the fruit was transported and displayed at the sauna areas with melting papers on top. - the administration should consider to add a second small pool or whirlpool in the fields or maybe in the forest near the saunas for a more intimate water spot. - there seems not to be an AC to cool down the room if one wants. - could be any activity after dinner and more lively music events would be appreciated! The young trio we experienced was very good!

Just returned from a 4-night stay at this lodge. It was overall pleasant with a few things amiss. First the good: - The view from the lodge is absolutely gorgeous, a perfectly serene place to relax and we were blissfully happy sitting on the deck (we booked a jr chalet) doing nothing and just letting our eyes drink the view in. - The food is so wonderful!! I was especially impressed by dinner, each night they had a different 4-course menu (always with two options for each course except the dessert), as well as a couple fixed menus, and we could order from whichever menu and mix/match as we wished (and everything was included in the stay). The dishes were all creative and delicious and we almost always tried to order one of everything, this was definitely a highlight of my stay and something I looked forward to each night. The servers were always attentive to our needs and good with remembering our preferences, which is an added plus. Now the things I wished were different in our trip: - There's no AC. At our request the staff brought a fan to our room which helped a little, but still, the room was quite hot and stuffy for the days we were there at noon and during the afternoon (high temperature were in the 30C's/80-90s F). Perhaps it's because the heatwave has made recent days an anomaly? - Laundry service was broken for the first few days we were there, which was an inconvenience. - On our checkout day I unfortunately woke up with a lower fever, we called the front desk asking if there might be any Tylenol/medication for fever, 20min later someone came to my room saying they'd send something in half an hour, but until we checked out (which was like 2 hours later) no one came. This was disappointing especially compared to other hotels of similar star-level/pricing that I had experienced in the past.
